A girl and a Pillar

confronted

As me and Toji make way to the temple we stopped in the corridor, a man that looked like Kyojuro but much older was making way towards Kyojuro with his sword, He yelled and grunted as if he had become overpowered by some heinous demon.

"Kyo"! You have to alway's be ready for an attack!

"NEVER" LET YOUR GUARD DOWN!...

The man charged at Kyo. "what" were they training for anyway?

"Papa!"... Toji ran over to him.

This must be Kyo and Toji's father.

"Hello" miss.... He paused waiting for me to answer.

"Oh" "Hello my name's Mizaka"

"Pleased" to meet you Mizaka I've heard a lot about you from my here boy Toji he seems to have taken a liking to you. I am Shinjuro Kyojuro. I am Toji and Kyo's father.

The man seemed kind, stern but still kind he was very handsome and carried himself very professionally I could see where Kyo got it from.

So, you're the gal that's going to marry my son... his father asked as I just stood there with no expression on my face but the color red.

 "It's about time our clan can't wait any longer"... he know's its his duty to deliver our clan another heir we cannot let our clan's power die out we need to secure our future and deliver a heir soon.

I was speechless... this man basically just told me to marry his son and have his babies for guaranteed succession of the clan. 

Kyo suddenly glared at his father and interrupted him, "That's" enough father... our affair's do not have anything to do with her leave her out of it. Kyo's expression had completely changed almost as if he had being seriously bothered by what his father had just spoke of, "Mizaka please excuse my father he lack's respect in some aspect's.

"It's completely fine...

Kyo then grabbed my hand and proceeded to walk away from the situation that had occurred, in the distance I could see all that was left was Shinjuro and Toji making way to the entrance of their home. They waved goodbye to me and left.

"Kyo" where are we going? I asked,

he didn't answer still holding my hand and guiding me thru some pathway's to what appeared to be pathways leading toward's the back of the temple. I figured I'd ask him if he was okay but I was afraid he wouldn't answer me once more. As were walking thru the pass-way I noticed he was bleeding from a cut on his arm he had must have just gotten it while training with his dad his shirt was missing the whole left sleeve it  was completely torn off, his hair had remnants of twigs, leave's and some rubble. His hand's felt rough on mine I could feel the callouses on his palm's. Everything about this man I feel told a story, and somehow I wanted to know his story.

"Kyo"...may I please... 

He then quickly lets go of my arm and turn's around comes to a dead stop and look's at me with the meanest look I think he has ever given me or I think Ive ever seen.

Why are you here Mizaka?...

"What"?... I answered

"Why are you here? he asked again, what do you mean Kyo i'm here because you told me to come here you asked me to see you, I don't understand.

"No"...I mean why are you here in Sagiri village. What made you come here, who sent you?

Not understanding why Kyo was suddenly interrogating me I looked at him his expression still the same it almost made you upset to as to why he'd confront you so abruptly without reason.
